Abstract	:	A highly efficient push-push voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) with a new inductive frequency tuning topology for (sub) terahertz frequencies is presented. The tuning technique is based on a variable inductance seen at the emitter node of a base-degenerated transistor. The variable inductor exhibits high quality factor and high tuning range due to the tunable transistor transconductance via bias current. Fabricated in a 0.13-
